Not sure. They run $109-129 on the web. I am lucky, I have a piece of a shop. So, dealer cost is even better. Sometimes, I am just the Guinea pig for the shop and this is one of those times.

They (XiEDs) show up from time to time on the forum classifieds. I got mine off the road glide forum classifieds for $55.

Alright.
What is an xied?
